Review
A unique and excellent resource, written with clarity, in-depth understanding and respect for women's knowledge about their bodies. -- Vivian Littlefield PhD, RN, FAAN, Professor Emerita and Dean Emerita, University of Wisconsin-Madison

Product Description
This book is a refreshing departure from the usual books about women and their hormones! Part 1 describes a set of simple observations designed to help women determine whether they have too much or too little estrogen - before and after menopause. Part 2 of the book shares some little known research that describes how various life style choices might effect how much estrogen a woman has in her body at any given time - emphasizing the uniqueness of each woman, including women whose hormones may affect diseases such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, breast cancer and lupus.
